UPT20 League 2026: Top 4 Confirmed As Kashi Rudras Beat Meerut Mavericks By 56 Runs
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: The defending champions, Kashi Rudras, delivered a statement performance in a must-win encounter, defeating the table-topping Meerut Mavericks by 56 runs in Match 29 of the UP T20 League 2026 on Tuesday. Played at Kanpurs historic Green Park Stadium, a venue boasting a legacy of 40 international matches, the result finalises the playoff picture for the season. The Meerut Mavericks retain the top spot with 15 points, followed by the Lucknow Falcons in second with 13 points. Kashi Rudras and Noida Kings complete the top four, finishing third and fourth respectively with 10 points each. Meanwhile, the Gaur Gorakhpur Lions and Kanpur Superstars have been officially eliminated from the tournament. Knowing a win was necessary to stay alive, Kashi Rudras skipper Karan Sharma won the toss and confidently opted to bat first. The openers validated his decision immediately, putting together a solid 75-run stand off 51 balls. Vaibhav Jaiswal contributed a brisk 33 off 24 deliveries, while skipper Karan Sharma anchored the innings with a brilliant 57 off 40 balls, setting a robust foundation. Wicketkeeper-batter Upendra Yadav then took charge, unleashing a devastating late assault. Yadav smashed an unbeaten 57 off just 29 deliveries, lacing his innings with four boundaries and five massive sixes. His explosive finish powered the Kashi Rudras to an imposing total of 175/4 in their 20 overs. Faced with a challenging target of 176, the Meerut Mavericks' chase stumbled at the very first hurdle. Star opener Swastik Chikara fell for a four-ball duck to Kartik Yadav, setting the tone for the innings. Kartik delivered a sensational spell, finishing with figures of 3/12 in his four overs, suffocating the Meerut top order and leaving them reeling at 70/5 in 13 overs. For his phenomenal bowling display that derailed the chase, Kartik Yadav was rightfully named the Player of the Match. Divyansh Rajput attempted to stabilise the innings, battling his way to a gritty 39 off 31 balls. However, his resistance ended in an unfortunate fashion when he was dismissed hit-wicket by Rishabh Rajput on the fifth ball of the 16th over. On the very next delivery, Rishabh dismissed Yash Garg, ending the over and leaving Meerut needing 70 runs from 24 balls with just three wickets in hand. The drama peaked on the first ball of the 17th over when Impact Player Sangam Singh struck immediately, completing a spectacular team hat-trick spanning across the two overs. The Meerut Mavericks were eventually bundled out for 119 in 19.2 overs. Rishabh Rajput finished with superb figures of 3/13, while Atal Bihari Vipin Rai chipped in with two wickets, securing a massive 56-run victory. The result gives the Kashi Rudras back-to-back wins and immense momentum heading into the knockouts, whereas the Meerut Mavericks will need to regroup after suffering consecutive defeats. With the league stage concluded, the tournament now enters its decisive playoff phase. Due to persistent rain and wet outfield conditions in Kanpur, all playoff matches have been officially shifted to the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow.

UP T20 League: Playoffs And Final Relocated To Lucknow Amid Heavy Rains In Kanpur
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: The UP T20 League has relocated its playoff matches and final from Kanpur to Lucknow following continuous heavy rainfall in the city, the tournament's governing council announced on Monday. The knockout fixtures of the fourth season of the competition will now take place at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow, with the match dates retained as per the original schedule. Qualifier 1 and the Eliminator will be played on September 3, with Qualifier 2 the next day and the title clash on September 6. Sanjay Kapoor, Chairman of the UP T20 League Governing Council, officially confirmed the venue change at a press conference at Green Park Stadium in Kanpur. Due to the continuous rain in Kanpur, it has become nearly impossible to complete full matches, which directly impacts the game and the players' ability to showcase their talent. In crucial and decisive encounters like the playoffs, it is essential that all participating teams get a fair and equal opportunity to play a complete 20-over match, said Kapoor. The announcement was made in the presence of UPCA Media Committee Chairman Mohammad Faheem and UP T20 League Governing Council Member Sanjeev Kumar Singh, along with other senior regional cricket administrators. Kapoor noted that local weather forecasts indicated further rain in Kanpur over the coming days, leaving organisers with no option but to move the remaining fixtures to Lucknow. This decision was not made in favour of or against any particular team, but strictly to uphold the fairness of the sport and the welfare of the players. A wet outfield due to persistent rain significantly increases the risk of injuries. Kapoor noted that local weather forecasts indicated further rain in Kanpur over the coming days, leaving organisers with no option but to move the remaining fixtures to Lucknow.

Duleep Trophy: Vaibhav Sooryavanshi Dazzles, Mukesh Strikes Twice As East Zone Keep Central To 45/3
The Madhya Pradesh: East Zone vice-captain Vaibhav Sooryavanshi dazzled with a stroke-filled 92, helping his side reach parity with defending champions Central Zone before Mukesh Kumar struck twice to end Day 2 on a high for East on Monday. With eyes glued on Sooryavanshi in his red-ball Test, the 15-year-old starred with a record-breaking 92 off 81 balls, turning heads with seven sixes and as many fours at the BCCI Centre of Excellence Ground 1. During his stroke-filled knock, the Bihar batter became the youngest-ever player to score a half-century in the Duleep Trophy. At 15 years and 157 days, Sooryavanshi broke the 57-year-old record of Laxman Singh, who was 16 years and 23 days old when he smashed a fifty in the red-ball tournament in 1969. He could well have become the youngest centurion in the Duleep Trophy had he not holed out to deep midwicket off Harsh Dubey. While Sooryavanshi put the bowlers to the sword, his senior opening partner Abhimanyu Easwaran was content to hold the end up, scoring 69 off 106 balls as the two put on 161 for the opening wicket. Meanwhile, Sooryavanshi's dismissal triggered a collapse of the Ishan Kishan-led East side as Dubey and seamers Aryan Pandey and Yash Thakur ripped through the line-up. Dubey removed two in two, dismissing Kumar Kushagra on the next ball before Aryan took the baton. The Madhya Pradesh seamer bowled brilliantly after lunch, taking three wickets in 15 minutes. This included the scalps of Easwaran, Virat Singh and Sudip Gharami. Yash also impressed with three wickets of his own, as East managed to score 266 in the first innings, the same total Central made on Day 1. Meanwhile, Sooryavanshi's dismissal triggered a collapse of the Ishan Kishan-led East side as Dubey and seamers Aryan Pandey and Yash Thakur ripped through the line-up.

JK Cong urges CM to intervene for hike in stipend of medical interns
Jammu, Aug 31: Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee president Tariq Hameed Karra on Monday urged Chief Minister Omar Abdullah to intervene in the ongoing protest by medical interns and ensure an early and meaningful enhancement in their stipend. Jammu and Kashmir has probably emerged as the lowest-paying region for MBBS and BDS interns among the states and Union Territories listed in a comparative chart circulated by protesting medical interns, with a monthly stipend of just Rs 12,300, prompting them to launch an indefinite strike on Monday demanding its immediate revision to Rs 30,000. In a letter addressed to the chief minister, Karra said the demand of the protesting medical interns was genuine and deserved sympathetic and immediate consideration. Medical interns constitute an essential part of the healthcare delivery system and shoulder significant responsibilities in hospitals while undergoing their compulsory internship, he said. These young doctors routinely work long and demanding hours, including 36-hour shifts, attending to patients and performing their duties with dedication and commitment, Karra said. He pointed out that the stipend being provided to medical interns in Jammu and Kashmir was considerably lower than that offered in several other parts of the country. When interns elsewhere are being provided better financial support for comparable responsibilities and working hours, the demand of our medical interns for a reasonable enhancement in stipend merits serious consideration, he said. Karra urged Omar to direct the authorities concerned to engage with the protesting interns, listen to their grievances and work towards an early and satisfactory resolution of the issue. The Congress leader said positive government intervention at this stage would not only address a legitimate concern of the medical fraternity but also boost the morale of young doctors who contribute significantly to the functioning of hospitals and healthcare institutions. He hoped the government would prioritise the matter and take necessary steps for a meaningful hike in the stipend of medical interns in Jammu and Kashmir, in line with their responsibilities and the prevailing stipends in other parts of the country. The interns said their stipend had remained unchanged for nearly seven years despite repeated representations and protests, while the cost of living and stipends offered to interns in several other states had increased substantially. According to the comparative figures displayed by the interns, Odisha tops the list with a monthly stipend of Rs 44,319, followed by West Bengal at Rs 43,099 and Assam at Rs 35,000. Karnataka pays Rs 30,000, while Kerala offers Rs 27,300 and Delhi and Meghalaya Rs 26,300 each. The stipend in Telangana is listed at Rs 25,900, while Arunachal Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh offer Rs 25,000 each. Tamil Nadu's stipend is shown at around Rs 25,000, followed by Haryana at Rs 24,310 and Andhra Pradesh at around Rs 21,840. Gujarat, Bihar, Goa and Himachal Pradesh are listed at around Rs 20,000 a month, while Puducherry offers Rs 18,000.
How 60-year-old India-Nepal border barrage helped save Bihar from flood
Concerns over fake and synthetic paneer have reportedly made their way into celebrity kitchens, with Twinkle Khanna revealing that she and her mother, actor Dimple Kapadia, have started making the popular dairy product at home. Twinkle opened up about the change in her latest Mrs Funnybones column, published on August 30, while adding her trademark humour to the ongoing food-safety conversation. According to Twinkle, reports surrounding allegedly fake paneer prompted the mother-daughter duo to reconsider their dependence on store-bought paneer. However, making it at home has also revived an old competition between the two over how much paneer they can produce from the same quantity of milk. Since this fake paneer scam hit the headlines, my mother and I have started making paneer at home. Our old argument continues. In her house, one litre of milk yields 250 grams of paneer. I get 180 grams from the same amount of milk. Now, its also about whose paneer is tastier. Next, I suspect she will start asking whose paneer is whiter, and I may start putting detergent in mine, she wrote. Twinkle then linked her joke to another food-safety incident from Bihars Nalanda district, where students reportedly fell ill after detergent was allegedly used instead of salt. The reference allowed her to continue exploring the sometimes unsettling ways in which concerns about food adulteration intersect with everyday life. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Twinkle Khanna (@twinklerkhanna) Her column also touched upon the food-safety inspections being carried out across India. Taking inspiration from the strict approach associated with Maharashtra FDA commissioner Tukaram Mundhe, Twinkle imagined conducting her own tongue-in-cheek inspection at home. During her fictional Mundhe-inspired raid, she joked about finding an expired packet of Shahi Masala that had seemingly been lying around in her kitchen for an unusually long period. Twinkle wrote, Those who want to erase the Mughals from our history books should first start with lunch. Give up your koftas, kormas, kebabs... You cant have your Mughlai paneer, real or analogue, and eat it too. Through humour and personal anecdotes, Twinkle highlighted how wider food-safety concerns can quickly become part of ordinary household conversations. Her column blends the national debate over food adulteration with the familiar realities of cooking, family disagreements and kitchen habits.
